In contrast to ''[[:en:create:functions:mailresume|mailResume()]]'', the current interview will not be resumed. Instead, the mailing is sent in the same way as if it had been prepared manually. | This function prepares the sending of a mailing directly in the questionnaire -- for example, the invitation to the second questionnaire.

Sending different mailings is possible -- e.g. an invitation to take part in the second wave of the survey in 14 days and a further invitation to the third wave in 1 month. | **Note:** A mailing is sent (in contrast to ''mailResume()'') only once per recipient, even if the function is called up repeatedly.
